In 1993 Frank and David Brants a.k.a. Axel Stephenson teamed up for a project which they called Jones & Stephenson. The result of their first collab was the track “The First Rebirth”, which came out via Bonzai Records. And that one became a massive success in the rave scene back then. And even now, 27 years after the original release, the track is still as popular as ever.

During the years “The First Rebirth” got several re-releases with remixes from people such as Red Jerry, John 00 Fleming, Airwave, Danjo & Styles, Charlotte de Witte and a brand new remix from techno producer Reinier Zonneveld came out in June 2020.
